ok guys so i know there is quite a few threads about this but there are also a lot of different answers, so I'm looking for something more accurate.

so i have a 1996 r33 gtst series 2 and a week ago it was fine. one day i got in it and drive it and every time i hit the throttle it has a horrible miss. SOMETIMES if i take it out the road for a drive it may be fine then later ill get back in it and its the same again.

i pulled the coil packs off and the fourth plug had water in it so i blew that out n put it back together with excitement thinking id have fixed it but it didn't. i didn't actually pull the plug out, just dried out the water around it.

please help me, this is doing my head in! :/

Cheers, Ethan!

not all places stock Bcpr6es or Bcpr7es. usually supercheap and repco wont but call them up and ask and otherwise they should be able to refer you to a place that will.

Beyond that, how do you have water getting into your coil valley area? this is not a good thing and worth sorting before you put in the new plugs...

Clean the coil valley out, clean the coil packs and replace the spark plugs. There's a youtube post for fix misfire on r33 gtr where you basically add some dielectric grease (headlight bulb grease supercrap has it for a dollar a pack) to the bottom of the coil pack where the spark plug pushes up into the boot. Worked great for me on several cars.

      Manual Shifter slightly bounces/moves/vibrates when accelerating/deaccelerating

      By Doug 98 R34 GTT · Posted

      New R34 owned here (from the US) and found a gem, '98 GTT with ~6k miles, super clean & completely stock. When shifting there's no grinding, shifts smooth, etc. The concern I have are 2 things: 1) Only in 2nd and 3rd... when maintaining a slower speed (in traffic as an example) as I let off/on the gas, the shifter will slightly move and vibrate. If the clutch is engaged, none of this happens. It's not bad, but enough to feel like something isn't necessarily right. 2) This mainly happen in 4th or 5th... the shifter slightly bounces up and down, almost like it's riding on unbalanced tires (and I do think the tires are unbalanced as I get a little of that bounce feel at higher speeds, which is maybe why it only happens in 4th/5th). Lastly, and sorry for this noob question but I want to work on this car myself, can someone teach me some on these manual transmissions? Like servicing them, best products to use, etc.; would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

      Coilovers aren't even the first step. Bushes, subframe position and alignment, HICAS elimination, adjustable upper arms and traction arms in order to dial out understeer. All these things need/deserve attention first. ARBs (There's no such thing as a swaybar. Please, everybody, stop calling them that) are useful if you want to limit spring stiffness. Otherwise you can control body roll with springs. Spring and damper rates are a function of road surface, speed and usage. There is no solution that works for all cases.

      Series 1 r33 no turn over

      Define "nothing". Is the starter spinning but not the engine? Engine turning but not firing? If the engine is turning but not firing, then you are missing either fuel or spark. You need to find whichever has gone missing.

      Shitbox Tiguan updates, got the APR OTS tune put back on (no charge for it to be removed/added back), didn't want to just come in just for that (not a fan of wasting people's time for nothing) so I purchased an APR dog bone insert. The boys at German Performance Garage said they would fit it for free too since they had 1x hoist free. Now that's service you don't normally get from most workshops. Anyhow, tune back on, snow grate pulled out, dog bone insert back in and not going to lie, a few smiles when I nailed it around the industrial area heading back onto the M7. Amayama also said 1 to 2.5 month wait for the RB25DE heater hose, yeah why not, car has been off the road for nearly 3, what's a other 2.5?

      Hmm I'm going to approach this from the other side... What is the car doing that you don't like or what would you like the car to do that is currently isn't doing (handling wise that is)
